SURVIVING MENOPAUSE - Specifically the Perimenopause!

Updated: May 4, 2020


#knowyourmenopause poster campaign by @pausitivity on twitter

Hash tags around the menopause are popping up everywhere, on Twitter, Instagram and I guess Facebook are now having to catch up. The great thing about these is they're creating awareness, and my main area that I'm focusing on is the Perimenopause, for a couple of reasons:


1. The Perimenopause happens typically in your 40s, or your 30s if you're having an early Menopause. I want to raise awareness in women of the symptoms you'll experience at this time


2. The Perimenopause doesn't necessarily have ANY heat symptoms. In Chinese Medicine, they're 'cold' - fatigue, overwhelm, foggy brain, anxiety


3. I get really angry that some GPs tell women they're depressed and try to push them down the route of Anti-depressants


4. I get really angry that some GPs tell women 'Anti-depressants .... this is how we treat menopause symptoms'.


Wrong, Wrong, Wrong!


Treat menopause symptoms with HRT at the very least, if appropriate. Treat symptoms by having the correct information to give women, learn about what the symptoms are and how to resolve them. I'm all about giving women advice on how to treat their symptoms at home and I'm taking this week off to write my 'Online Self Help Guide' which I'm really looking forward to doing and releasing very soon!


In the meantime there are some great campaigns out there trying to raise awareness of symptoms of the Menopause, this poster campaign is from @Pausitivity on twitter, with the hashtag #knowyourmenopause - you can download it here:



AND I have my fantastic bookmarks - you can get a free one here (just pay postage). Keep it in a book, in your bag, follow the tips AND take along to your GP!

Beware Menopause-branded supplements

There is very little scientific evidence behind many of the menopause supplements currently flooding the market. Women are constantly being sold the idea that one pill will solve every symptom — but menopause is far more complex than that.

I review the ingredients and dosages of the supplements I come across or am asked about, and many simply do not contain effective levels of the nutrients they promote. Be cautious of menopause “expert” endorsements. The menopause professionals I personally trust do not endorse the products I’ve reviewed.

That said, some supplements can help with certain symptoms and may be beneficial for some women. In my experience, supplements that target a smaller group of related symptoms are more likely to be effective than “all-in-one” formulas promising to fix everything.

Don’t feel disheartened if something hasn’t worked for you — often the issue is that the supplement doesn’t contain the right form or an effective dose of what your body actually needs.

My Starter Supplement Guide explains which supplements may help specific symptoms, why they matter, and the effective levels needed to support your body naturally.
